(Rulemaking – Air)

Proposed Rule. First Notice.

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):

Today the Board will proceed to first notice under the Illinois Administrative Procedure

Act (5 ILCS 100/1-1

et seq

. (2004)) with a rulemaking proposed by the Illinois Environmental

Protection Agency (Agency) on December 22, 2005. The Agency proposes amendments to Parts

218 and 219 of the volatile organic material (VOM) rules to allow for the use of add-on controls

as a compliance option for operations using cold cleaning solvent degreasing. The proposed

amendments affect cold cleaning degreasing operations located in the Chicago and Metro-East

ozone nonattainment areas.

BACKGROUND

Solvent cleaning, or degreasing as it is commonly called, is a process using aqueous

liquids or non-aqueous organic solvents to clean and remove soils from surfaces. Proposal

(Prop.) at 2. Solvent cleaning is divided into three major types: cold cleaning; open-top vapor

degreasing; and conveyorized degreasing.

. Evaporation of the solvent used during degreasing

results in VOM emissions that react with other pollutants such as nitrogen oxide and carbon

monoxide to form ozone.

In 1997, as a part of the 9% Rate of Progress (ROP) plan, the Board adopted control

measures proposed by the Agency to reduce VOM emissions for cold cleaning degreaser

operations in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas. Prop. at 3. These

measures, which are codified at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.182 and 219.182, lowered the allowed

solvent vapor pressure for operations in the Chicago and Metro-East areas to 2.0 millimeters of

mercury (mmHg) by 1999 and 1.0 mmHg by 2001.

. The Agency estimated that the

implementation of the lower vapor pressure would result in a VOM emission reduction of 11.35

tons per day by 1999 and an additional 11.68 tons per day by 2001. The 1997 ROP regulations

do not allow the use add-on controls for cold cleaning degreasers as an alternative to complying

with the solvent vapor limit.

Diversapack, a printing company that recycles its solvents in a totally enclosed parts

washer and uses add-on controls for the abatement of process emissions, contacted the Agency in

May 2003, regarding a possible variance from the vapor pressure limits at 35 Ill. Adm. Code

218.182(c). Prop. at 2. Diversapack uses solvents compatible with its printing operations, but

which do not meet the current vapor pressure requirements.

. The Agency identified three

additional point sources in the Chicago area that use add-on controls plus solvents that do not

meet the lower vapor pressure limits.

Id.

In lieu of the site-specific rulemakings for each of the identified facilities, the Agency is

proposing revisions to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 and 219. Prop. at 2. Specifically, the Agency

proposes revising Sections 218.182 and 219.182 to allow for add-on controls or equivalent

alternative control plans as compliance options, as well as additional revisions concerning

solvent sale, solvent use, add-on control testing, and recordkeeping requirements.

. at 3.

The Agency notes that currently an 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard

(NAAQS) is in effect for the Chicago and the Metro-East areas, designating each as a moderate

ozone nonattainment area. Prop. at 3. This 8-hour ozone NAAQS replaced the previous 1-hour

standard on June 15, 2005. However, given that the United States Environmental Protection

Agency (USEPA) has a policy against regression, the control measures adopted to meet the 1-

hour standard must still be maintained.

. at 4. Further, under the federal Clean Air Act and the

USEPA State Implementation Plan (SIP), failure to obtain equivalent emissions reductions from

the cold cleaning sources would require the Agency to make up the deficiency through the

implementation of contingency control measures.

. at 3-4. In this regard, according to the

Agency, USEPA has indicated that the 95% control level proposed here is sufficient for this

emissions source category.

. at 4.

Two hearings were held before Board Hearing Officer John Knittle. The first hearing

was held on April 19, 2006, in Chicago (Tr.1). The second hearing was held on May 17, 2006,

in Edwardsville (Tr.2). During those hearings, the Board heard the testimony of Gary E.

Beckstead from the Agency’s Bureau of Air. In addition, the Board has received two public

comments in this proceeding.

As required by Section 27(b) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS

5/27(b) (2004)), the Board requested that the Department of Commerce and Economic

Opportunity (DCEO) conduct an economic impact study (EcIS) on this rulemaking. The Board’s

EcIS request, dated February 22, 2006, was placed in this rulemaking’s docket. DCEO did not

respond to the Board’s request. At the second hearing, the hearing officer noted the Board’s

EcIS request to DCEO and DCEO’s lack of response, affording anyone the opportunity to testify.

No one testified about DCEO’s lack of response. Tr.2 at 5-6.

SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL

The Agency’s proposal, as amended by Agency

errata

sheets 1 (ES1) and 2 (ES2), seeks

to revise the Board’s cold cleaning degreaser rules applicable to facilities in the Chicago and

Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas. The proposed revisions would allow the use of add-on

controls as an alternative to using solvents with vapor pressure of 1.0 mmHg or less. Likewise,

the proposal also would allow the use of an equivalent alternative control plan to comply with

the control measure requirements. In addition, the proposal would provide the testing procedures

and recordkeeping requirements for add-on controls and equivalent alternative controls.

While the proposal would make parallel changes to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.182(c) and (d)

and 219.182(c) and (d), only changes to Section 218.182 are described in this summary. Prop. at

5. The Agency’s proposal seeks to add a new subsection at Section 218.182(c)(3)(A) that would

allow the sale of solvents with vapor pressure greater than 1.0 mmHg in units greater than five

gallons, but only if the purchaser provides a copy of a valid state or federal construction or

operating permit or a copy of a

Federal Register

notice demonstrating that the source is in

compliance with the add-on control requirements, or is exempt.

Id.

The proposed provision at

Section 218.182(c)(3)(B) would allow the operation of a cold cleaning degreaser using a solvent

with a vapor pressure greater than 1.0 mmHg, but only if the source is in compliance with the

add-on control requirements or is exempt.

The proposal would set forth control requirements for add-on controls at Section

218.182(c)(4). Prop. at 5. Subsection (c)(4)(A) would require sources using solvents with vapor

pressures greater than 1.0 mmHg but less than 56 mmHg to control their emissions to an overall

capture and control efficiency of no less than 95%.

. at 6; ES2. The requirements for

equivalent alternative emissions control plans would be set forth at Section 218.182(c)(4)(B).

These requirements would stipulate that emissions from a solvent with a vapor pressure of 1.0

mmHg shall be the basis for assessment of equivalent emissions for any proposed control plan.

Further, if used as an equivalent alternative control plan, an add-on control must have at least

95% reduction in VOM emissions. Prop. at 7; ES2.

Provisions would also be added mandating the testing of add-on controls at Section

218.182(c)(4)(C). Prop. at 7. Currently operating add-on controls would have to be tested by

March 1, 2007, and newly constructed add-on controls would have to be tested within 90 days

after startup.

. The testing procedures, monitoring, and recordkeeping provisions for add-on

controls and equivalent alternative control plans would be consistent with the provisions in

Section 218.105 and Section 219.105, which require that the control devices be operated and

maintained at the manufacturer’s specifications and continuously monitored to assure that they

are operating at the required compliance levels. Finally, recordkeeping and reporting

requirements applicable to the operation of add-on controls would be set forth under Section

218.182(d). All records would have to be kept for a minimum of three years.

The Agency’s proposal, including its statement of reasons, is available through the

Clerk’s Office in Chicago (312-814-3620) and on the Board’s Web site (

www.ipcb.state.il.us

)

using the Clerk’s Office On-Line or “COOL.”

TESTIMONY

At the hearings, the Board received testimony from Agency witness Gary E. Beckstead.

Beckstead is the Manager of the Regulatory Unit in the Air Quality Planning Section of the

Agency’s Bureau of Air. Beckstead at 1. He has worked in the field of regulatory rulemakings

with Agency since 1991. Beckstead holds a Bachelor of Ceramic Engineering degree from

The Agency prefiled the written testimony of Beckstead on March 13, 2006 (cited as

“Beckstead at _”) and his supplemental testimony on May 12, 2006 (cited as “Supp. Test. at _”).

Georgia Institute of Technology, and a Master of Science degree in Applied Earth Sciences from

Stanford University.

Id.

Beckstead was involved in the development of the Agency’s proposed

amendments and was responsible for preparing the Agency’s Technical Support Document,

which was included as an exhibit to Beckstead’s March 13, 2006 prefiled testimony.

Id.

Beckstead testified that the proposed provisions for add-on controls would result in less

VOM emissions than if solvents meeting the currently required vapor pressure limits were used.

Beckstead at 2. According to Beckstead, meeting the control efficiency level recommended in

the proposed amendments will assure the integrity of the 1999 – 2002 ROP Plan and will prevent

the need for contingency measures to be implemented to makeup for any emission reduction

deficiencies, as required by the federal Clean Air Act as amended in 1990.

Id.

Four cold cleaning sources, Beckstead stated, were identified in the 2003 annual

emissions reports data as using solvents with vapor pressures greater than the 1.0 mmHg limit.

Beckstead at 4. He noted that all four are in the Chicago ozone nonattainment area and all of

them are capturing 100% of their cold cleaning emissions and controlling the emissions to at

least a 95% level.

Id.

Elaborating, Beckstead testified that in May 2003, the Agency was contacted by

Diversapack, a printing source located in the Chicago nonattainment area, which was interested

in obtaining a variance to use solvents with vapor pressures of 55.19 mmHg and a control system

with overall capture and control of 98%. Diversapack also informed the Agency that its sister

company, Printpack, is using a similar solvent and control system. Beckstead at 5. Through an

inventory search, the Agency identified two additional sources that were also using add-on

controls and solvents with vapor pressures greater than 1.0 mmHg.

Id.

Based on this

information, the Agency decided that a revision to the cold cleaning regulations was more

practical and a better use of resources than having each of these sources seek individual

variances from the Board.

Id.

Beckstead testified that costs and inefficiencies would occur if the impacted sources were

required to convert to the low-vapor pressure solvents. Beckstead at 6. He asserted that quality

problems in printing and varnishing processes would be prevalent, increased waste would be

created, and more supplemental fuel would be needed to operate the add-on controls.

Id.

Beckstead testified that the Agency believes that the proposed control level of 95% is reasonable

and economically feasible for sources wishing to use add-on controls as an option to the solvent

vapor pressure limits.

. at 7-8. He testified that the four identified sources using add-on

controls are in compliance with the proposed option, which he stated would eliminate the need

for them to file variance petitions with the Board.

Id.

Further, he testified that the emissions

from sources using add-on controls and solvents with vapor pressures greater than the prescribed

limit are less than if the sources used solvents with the prescribed vapor pressures and no add-on

controls.

Id.

He asserted that the proposed changes to the cold cleaning regulation have been

reviewed by the impacted sources and USEPA and have been found acceptable by them.

Id.

In his supplemental prefiled testimony submitted on May 12, 2006, Beckstead stated that

the Agency will assess pollution prevention control measures on equal footing with any other

proposed equivalent alternative control measures. Supp. Test. at 9. Beckstead testified that if

VOM emissions to the atmosphere are equal to or less than using 1.0 mmHg vapor pressure

materials, the proposed pollution prevention control measure will be approvable by the Agency,

and that there is no formal requirement in the proposed revisions that pollution prevention

control measures be evaluated

. Id

Beckstead also testified that the Agency does not require sources to demonstrate cost

effectiveness via studies for control measures that they are planning to implement, but that the

Agency assesses the source’s compliance with the regulations and determines if the source is

meeting the proposed emission limits. Supp. Test. at 10.

Beckstead stated that the Agency is proposing: (1) that existing add-on controls be

considered those operating before November 30, 2006; (2) that existing add-on controls be tested

by March 1, 2007; and (3) that new add-on controls be considered those constructed on or after

November 30, 2006; and (4) that new add-on controls be tested within 90 days after initial start-

up. Supp. Test. at 10-11. In its May 12, 2006 second supplemental statement, and at the second

hearing, the Agency asserted that it does not intend the proposal to be retroactive, and that this

position is reflected in

errata

sheet number two. Supplemental Statement 2 at 1; Tr.2 at 23.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Two public comments were filed in this rulemaking: the Illinois Environmental

Regulatory Group (IERG) filed a comment in support of the proposal (PC 1) on June 14, 2006;

and the Agency filed a post-hearing comment (PC 2) on June 15, 2006. The comments are

summarized below.

IERG

IERG is a not-for-profit Illinois corporation comprised of 55 member companies engaged

in industry, commerce, manufacturing, agriculture, trade, transportation, or other related

activities regulated by governmental agencies that promulgate, administer, or enforce

environmental laws, regulations, rules, or other policies. PC 1 at 1. IERG asserts that a number

of IERG member companies conduct activities governed by the regulations set forth in 35 Ill.

Adm. Code Parts 218 and 219

. Id.

IERG asserts that it reviewed the proposed rulemaking in this proceeding and raised a

few minor points of clarification with the Agency that have subsequently been addressed in

Agency

errata

sheets. With those clarifications, IERG believes that the proposed amendments to

the cold cleaning degreaser requirements should be adopted. PC 1 at 2. IERG asserts that this

proposed rulemaking rightly restores the option of add-on controls and adds the equivalent

alternative control plan option, while remaining consistent with the intent of the 1997 revisions

to reduce VOM emissions in the nonattainment areas.

. at 3.

Finally, IERG opines that the compliance options provided by this rulemaking are

justified historically, environmentally, technically, and economically. PC 1 at 5. Therefore,

IERG urges the Board to adopt the proposed revisions to the cold cleaning requirements.

The Agency

In response to the Board’s questions pertaining to outreach to solvent retailers during the

first hearing held on April 19, 2006, the Agency asserts that it conducted an additional outreach

effort directed towards retailers of solvent. At the request of the Board, the Agency reports that

the May 15, 2006 outreach effort resulted in one association requesting to be added to the

Agency’s mailing list for future related proposed rulemakings. PC 2 at 1. With the Agency’s

public comment, the Agency also moved to correct the second hearing’s transcript. The Board

grants that unopposed motion.

DISCUSSION

The Board has held two days of public hearings and received substantial testimony and

public comments on this proposal. The entire record, including the additional language changes

today reflects the Board’s consideration of all the comments and testimony the Board has

received.

The information presented by the Agency indicates that in the cases of both add-on

controls and equivalent alternative control plans, the Agency is proposing additional options to

supplement the technically feasible low vapor pressure solvent requirement already in place.

The Board agrees with the Agency’s assertion that the technical feasibility of add-on controls for

point source cold cleaning degreasers is already being demonstrated.

In addition, by allowing the use of add-on controls, waste can be minimized as solvent

may be reused. In printing operations, the clean-up solvents from the closed-loop parts cleaners

are recycled for use in the printing process or for additional clean-up, reducing solvent waste,

solvent purchases, and operating costs. Technical Support Document (TSD) at 13. The Board

concurs with the Agency’s assertion in its TSD that requiring the impacted printing sources to

use low vapor pressure solvents would result in the generation of additional hazardous waste,

product quality issues, and inefficiencies.

. at 14.

The economic reasonableness analysis indicates that add-on controls coupled with closed

loop automatic parts washers offer cost benefits comparable to converting to low vapor pressure

solvents for some cold cleaning operations. Using data supplied by the four impacted sources,

the estimated cost effectiveness of using thermal oxidizers as an add-on control is between $115-

$562 per ton of VOM reduced. The cost effectiveness of lowering the solvent vapor pressure

limits to 1.0 mmHg was estimated to be in the range of $238 to $779. TSD at 14.

Further, the Board agrees with the Agency that additional costs and inefficiencies would

occur if these existing sources are required to use the low vapor pressure solvents. The

additional costs would include the higher cost of low vapor pressure solvents and waste disposal

costs. For example, using low vapor pressure solvent that could not be reused in other plant

operations would result in additional waste disposal costs of an estimated $161,000 per year in

the case of Diversapack. In addition, Diversapack estimates that using a lower vapor pressure

solvent would result in further solvent costs of $1,100,000 per year.

The testimony provided by Beckstead at the April 19, 2006 hearing indicates that the

emissions from sources using add-on controls for solvents with vapor pressures

greater

than the

currently required limit would be less than the emissions that would result if the sources used

solvents with the currently required vapor pressures (and no add-on controls). Tr.1 at 10. Thus,

these proposed amendments provide a benefit to the environment as well.

Finally, on May 4, 2006, after two public hearings, the Board in consolidated rulemaking

docket R04-12/20 adopted other Agency-proposed amendments to Parts 218 and 219, finding

them both technically feasible and economically reasonable. The rule changes, which became

effective on May 15, 2006, were designed to clarify, correct, streamline, and update numerous

provisions of the air pollution control rules.

See

Clean-Up Part III Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm.

Code Parts 211, 218, and 219, R04-20, Technical Corrections to Formulas in 35 Ill. Adm. Code

214 “Sulfur Limitations”, R04-12 (cons.) (May 4, 2006). Among those revisions, the Board

adopted the following amendments to the “paper coating” note at Sections 218.204(c) and

219.204(c):

Note: The paper coating limitation shall not apply to any owner or operator of any paper

coating line on which

flexographic or rotogravure printing is performed if the paper

coating line complies with the emissions limitations in Subpart H: Printing and

Publishing, Section 218.401 [219.401] of this Part. In addition, screen printing on paper

is not regulated as paper coating, but is regulated under Subpart TT of this Part.

At second notice of the R04-12/20 rulemaking, the Board stated:

IEPA proposed the revisions to the note under “paper coating” in Sections

218.204(c) and 219.204(c). The Board observes that the same paper coating note

also appears in Parts 218 and 219, Appendix H, however, no revisions were

proposed for those notes. Those appendices were therefore never opened in this

rulemaking. This appears to be an oversight. Because this rulemaking is

proceeding today to second notice, the Board is not in a position to now open any

rule sections that were not part of the first-notice publication. In the interest of

administrative economy, the Board will propose amending the notes to these

appendices in another pending air rulemaking filed by IEPA that has not yet been

to first notice: R06-21,

Organic Material Emissions Standards and Limitations for

the Chicago and Metro-East Areas: Proposed Amendments to 35 Adm. Code 218

and 219.

See

Clean-Up Part III Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 218,

and 219, R04-20, Technical Corrections to Formulas in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 214

“Sulfur Limitations”, R04-12 (cons.) (Mar. 2, 2006).

Accordingly, to ensure consistency with the already-amended “paper coating” note at Sections

218.204(c) and 219.204(c), the Board now proposes for first notice those previously omitted

amendments to the “paper coating” note at Appendix H in Parts 218 and 219. In support, the

Board on its own motion incorporates by reference the R04-12/20 record into this R06-21

proceeding.

See

35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.306.

CONCLUSION

The Board finds that the Agency’s proposal, as amended by Agency

errata

sheets 1 and

2, is technically feasible and economically reasonable. The Board makes several minor,

clarifying changes to the Agency’s proposed rule language, none of which merit discussion. As

discussed above, the Board also proposes amendments to the “paper coating” note at Appendix

H in Parts 218 and 219, which amendments were inadvertently not made in R04-12/20.

The Board will proceed to first notice with the proposal. The Board will accept

additional public comments for at least 45 days from the date on which this first-notice proposal

is published in the

Illinois Register

ORDER

The Board directs the Clerk to cause first-notice publication of the following proposed

amendments in the

Illinois Register

. Proposed additions to Parts 218 and 219 are underlined;

proposed deletions appear stricken.
